I did not realize until today how long I had been gone.
Sorry about that, but in my defense I feel I have a pretty good excuse.
After weeks of feeling exhausted and under the weather I decided it was time I took "the test".
Boy o' boy did I pass with flying colors.
Please meet the newest addition to our family.
We've nicknamed it Blueberry and are due July 2010.
More to come.
It's not quite finished, but it still looks fabulous and finished enough to show off.
La Casa before:
The little pink La Casa now:
The porch details:
Everything looks great. I could not be more happy with the colors, even if my husband still shakes his head at the pink color we settled on.
Now I can not wait for Spring to arrive to work on the landscaping.
Have a fantastic Sunday everyone!
You know... I was really looking forward to sewing Little B's costume this year.
However, he had a different idea. He wanted to be Spider-Man. While I did want to make his costume, I didn't want to search long and hard for the right colors and textures of the red and blue and then still have to be creative on the spider and the web.
So after a quick trip to a big box store and $15 dollars later... Viola!
I give you Spider-Man.
Happy Halloween everybody.
Here are a few shots of the new kitchen. I would say it is 85% to 90% complete.
All we need is to hang window/door trim, put up the crown molding/baseboards, attach the glass knobs to the cabinets, and tile the backsplash. It may sound like alot, but to me its the home stretch.
This is the corner that used to house the hot water heater and old stove.
The sink went back into its old space, we just added the dishwasher.
This was the area where there was a crazy old closet. We removed the closet, set the fridge back and added a few more cabinets.
My magnetic wall was an after thought. While magnet paint is nice (since magnets won't stick to the fridge) it doesn't work to well. So save your money.
Once everything is done, I'll do a few before/after shots.
Nighty night!
Well the family and I were invited to the neighbor's for a little casual get together.
It was fabulous. Good food, nice folks, and lots of conversation. We met a single dad with a little girl (same age as Little B). She was adorable. Dark completion, cute little pig tails, and boy could she shake it down.
Well I guess Little B thought she was cute too. He offered her juice boxes, graham crackers, and eventually won her heart because by the end of the night they shared a little kiss.
It brought a tear to my eye. That's because I was unsure whether to laugh or cry.
They grow up so fast.
